Gluten Free Guide to Iceland

Gluten Free Guide to Iceland

Iceland really surprised me with how celiac-friendly it was! I was prepared to pack all my own food and live off granola bars...but I was met with a country that really understood celiac-safe food preparation. This guide includes mostly Reykjavik suggestions with a few other spots scattered around the island.

🚨I had much better luck when describing my needs as a "gluten allergy" instead of celiac disease. So though we all know celiac disease is NOT an allergy, I'd recommend communicating it as such to get the best response from restaurant staff.

Reykjavík Chips
@celiacinitaly
As the name suggests, Reykjavik Chips used to just be a french fry spot, but they've recently started serving burgers as well. They have separate fryers for just the french fries so those are safe and although they didn't have gluten-free buns they were able to make me a burger (on a clean grill) with a lettuce wrap. They also have a sheet with allergen information about all the sauces. I remember that all the sauces were GF except one but I can't remember which one it was so be sure to ask! They were very kind and accommodating and the fries were delicious. We had a few quick, small lunches here.
